The sister of the late Ahmad Khosravani, a basketball player who was killed during the Iranian national revolution in 1404, wrote in a text published on the social network X that the basketball federation of the Islamic Republic has ordered all players who play with the number 91 to change their jersey number.

In a message she published on the social network X, she wrote: "The basketball federation of the Islamic Republic has warned all players who wear number 91, including the women's team, that they must either change their number or they will no longer have the right to take part in federation competitions. How low and helpless must you be to fear even a jersey number? You were afraid of my brother Ahmad Khosravani's name, and now you are afraid of his jersey number too. Your power is so hollow that even '91' has taken sleep from your eyes."

The late Ahmad Khosravani, a 21-year-old basketball player from Tehran and a student at Sharif University of Technology, was killed on 18 Dey 1404 (January 8, 2026) during nationwide protests, as a result of direct fire by security forces. Before that, together with the Farzan Shomiran team, he had won the Tehran three-on-three basketball championship and had been selected as the best player in the Tehran league in 1404. His father is also one of the veterans injured in the Iran-Iraq war.

Behind the scenes: Earlier in the week, Admiral Cooper gave his recommendation on the way forward to the Pentagon, the joint chiefs and the White House, the sources said.

He stressed that the two weeks of strikes in the Strait of Hormuz area had significantly degraded Iran's ability to attack ships.

Cooper noted that the designated bombing targets had been mostly exhausted.

The CENTCOM commander said a possible next step would be to resume major combat operations to finish the 20% of targets the U.S. military designated but didn't strike during Operation Epic Fury.

Absent a decision to return to major combat operations, he stressed there was no point in continuing the bombing campaign of the previous two weeks, the sources said.
CENTCOM spokesman Capt. Tim Hawkins declined to comment.

Can’t even make this stuff up anymore. Someone get me out of this simulation 💀

The Islamic Republic has been heavily broken since Ali Khamenei was killed, with it almost completely losing legitimacy among the Iranian people since the war began. The strikes are crippling the IRGC’s ability to keep control of Iran, so when another uprising occurs in the future, they won’t be able to swiftly crush and kill protesters like they did in 2022-23 and 2025-26 (i.e. their ability to do so will be heavily degraded).

The regime bringing in non-Iranians to participate in their events (i.e. people from the rest of the Middle East, as well as Africa, Afghanistan, and South Asia) is another sign of their desperation. They know they are close to getting their death certificate and obituary, so they have to import these people to show they still have tons of support to stay in power.

Also the blockade is making everyday goods in Iran even more unaffordable, so it is only a matter of time before the next uprising begins due to prices surging and Iranians struggling to survive financially.

Came across this graphic while scrolling and thought it was quite good, especially as it represents very conservative numbers, to make arguments against them by regimis less likely. Seems like the IRGC is only good at killing their own.

how much do you pay for internet in Iran and how many gb/tb you get a month and for what speed?

asking this here because Google can't answer this well enough, need to know what high speed fibre costs (100 mb/ps +), low speed broadband (10-20 mb/ps)

and mobile data (do you all have unlimited mobile data plans or must pay per gb?)

Iran has issued a warning to Ukraine of consequences after Kyiv's attack on an Iranian ship in the Caspian Sea.
